I have been down with cough for more than 2 weeks. My cough just got worst over the weekend. I was running a temperature in the night and I decided I should stay home today with the medical leave the doctor had given me. I'm definitely high on the index for cough. Damned the bad air quality and weather here. I miss those fresh air and lovely spring weather in Oz.

I just read a friend's blog, it was funny how she missed home initially within less than 24 hours touching down in USA. Now it seems she is really having lots of fun and enjoying herself. True enough, you need to settle in before you really know what the place has to offer to you.

I have been going up and down the hills of late. It seems like I have lost my sense of direction. A direction I once knew and persistent on following is gone. I have not been happy of late with work. Perhaps it ain't so much of an idealist's world to be a in realistic world.
